Learn how to take your passion from public space into a profession, featuring placemaking practitioners in various stages of their career!

Fifty years ago, the founders of Project for Public Spaces invented a new kind of work, driven by the belief that public spaces should be designed by the people who use them every day. Since then, placemaking—the collaborative process by which we can shape our public realm in order to maximize shared value—has grown into a global field of practitioners committed to designing, managing, and activating places that serve everyone.

But as the field of placemaking continues to evolve, how do people get their start and advance in this line of work? And how are emerging leaders shaping the future of our shared places through their own unique paths?

This webinar explores the professional journeys of public space leaders in various stages of their career, as they discuss their path to working in public space, the evolution of placemaking as a field, and what challenges they face in their work today. Whether you’re just beginning your journey in public space or have been at it for years, this conversation offers inspiration and insight into how to translate placemaking from a passion into a profession.
